Princess Alice, wearing the tiara dismantled to create the ring and bracelet

The wedding gift took the form of a wide bracelet featuring stepped geometric motifs centered around the three largest diamonds. It's quite a statement piece due to its width, and the Queen has continued to wear it from the early years of her marriage through today.

She chose to wear the bracelet in the official photographs taken to commemorate her Diamond Jubilee. Combined with other jewels which have great history and particular relation to Queen Victoria, the only other British monarch to celebrate 60 years on the throne, it seems a specific tribute to the Duke and the support he has given her throughout her reign. Awww.

Surprisingly, given what I would imagine is great sentimental value and given that The Queen has worn the bracelet in recent years, she chose to loan it to The Duchess of Cambridge, who wore the bracelet for her first state banquet appearance.
